Says Austin Of the Iimos.Siar: The
average Congressman who comes to
town now comes for the purpose Of
securing a home for the coming session
of Congress. If he isa new Member he
finds himself good deal surprised by
the time he has priced the accommoda.
tions offered. If he attempts to hire a
furnished home he is paralyzed with
the prices. Here are few items from
the offerings made to a visitor the other
day. An eleven.roOm house, on X
street, away beyond the limit Of the
fashionable section, $3.50 per month
| One on Vermont avenue, $500 per
month One on Connecticut avenue
for 1898 per month, Another on n
street for $3iJ "a month. One with
fourteen rooms, on Rhode Island ave.
nue., for $4l6 n month. Another on
street for the modest price of 5000 II
month, or $50 per day, and still
another for the neat sum of 81 900 u
month. To your average new Con
gresham the experience of house
hunting in pastures where the rent
alone is more than double his salary
must be rather depressing.

thinker and a slayer. The convention
will not lack for brains from either po-
litical party, but will have all that is
necessary to start any state Alright. Two
or three things are quite noticeable.
First, the farmers are taking a
deep interest in this move.
They seem 10 realize that the time has
arrived when they should no longer be
taxed from , to 21@ per cent every year
for school purposes, when. if admitted,
portions of the school lands could be
sold and the educational system main
tanned without direct taxation. See
Ond-The Scandinavians all over the
territory are i'll sympathy with it be-
cause they are sOlidly opposed to divis-
ion for the reason that they want no
double set of Office-holders TO sustain.
Third-The business men in the
smaller towns, outside of few of the
future cities which hope for CAPITAL
lightning, are divided, rather, they are
indifferent. They have their views one
way or the other, but. generally speak
ing, they are for whatever will bring
them immediate statehood. There has
been a decided change in the tone of the
press since election. Strong country
papers. which prior to election advO-
Gated division. have had little or moth
ing to say about the matter since the
result Of the election became generally
known, while papers once lukewarm
toward the division. more now look
with favor upon the admission c0nven-
ton. 1t Is true that some of the daiies
in the southern part of the territory
have held up their hands in holy horror
at the move for admission as one state,
but their expression is regarded more
as in the interest of the respective
towns in which they are published than
as indicative of the general sentiment
of the masses.

POTTER,S PROTESr.

Editor POTTER. who is one of the
most rational and conservative of the
faction that demands admission or moth
ing, objects to the Aberdeen move
ment that it does does not promise adj
mission in season TO Dakota to vote at
the presidential election. There are
other inconSiderate parties who do not
see why the processes of state formation
cannot be completed in season to take a
hand in the quadrennial tusSle. Editor
POTTER knows very well why this is
virtually impracticable, but some others
do not. Those who are pushing the
Aberdeen movement expect early in the
new year 10 have the reasons
for admission summarized in
manner that will enlist
favorable attention at Washington. They
design to be heard before the proper
congressional committees, and expect
these committees to recommend
action. and that within a reason
able time an enabling act will be ten
dcred 10y both house of congress prOvid-
ing for the holding of a convention to
frame state constitution for Dakota.
Even if there is no needless delay at
Washington, the election of delegates
and holding of constitutional conven-
fion will not be reached and the work
completed before the adjournment of
the present session Of congress. The
next session does not commence until
after the presidential election.
But before the state constitution
is sent 10 Washington for final approval
it must be submitted to popular vote in
the territory. Would not Gen. CAMP
BELL, Editor POTTER and others of
their persuasion regard ii as a gross and
wanton outrage if they we're not given
ample time to roam the territory and
exhort the people TO reject the constitli-
ton? Probably this vote will be taken
OH the day of the presidential election,
and perhaps state officials, congressman
and a legislature chosen at that time

SOME INDICATIONS.
The President in No Hurry to Ap-
point a Successor to Sparks.

I6e PreSiUcnt in No Hurry to APP
point a Successor to Sparks.
Special TO the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The appoint
ment of a successor To the late Gen.
Sparks will not be made Immediately
unless adviceS from very near the pres
dent are misleading. There is some
reason to believe that Notwithstanding
his denials, Gen. Bryant, of Wisconsin
will be appointed. True it would not
be wise for him to say anything that
would look as though he were seeking
the office. But lie is Col. Villas best
friend and very astute lawyer. He
would be the best man for the place
that can be selected. Gen. Bryant is a
very pleasant, genial, honest gentle
man. Whoever knows him likes him.
His associates in the pOStOffice depart
ment of both parties speak well of him,
and his relations with them all have
been most cordial. Gentlemen from
either house of congress are well pleased
with him when they have business to
transact with the attorney general for
the pOstOffice department. The Dakota
people who have been having celebra-
lions over the removal of Sparks,
will have good reason to rejoice and be
NANtNNIHSiN Sluu IL NiOIi. III 10
appointed in his stead. There is 10
more interchangeable worker in any de-
partmet than Bryant If he becomes
commissioner of the general land office.
he will clean up those thousands of
eases which have been hanging fire for
so many moons. Settlers will soon find
out who owns the dirt and who doesn't.
But, equally fortunate would it be. if,
as is rumored. Gen. Bryant shall be APP
pointed assistant attorney general for
the interior department. The present
incumbent of that Office gives but little
better satisfaction than Sparks did in
his position. In fact, Montgomery is
good man. but not a great man. Bry-
ant would be vast imprOveme mt upon
him. If Col. Villas shall go into the i'll
terror department, as seems to be
settled, he will put a dash and energy
into the department which will make
the heads of some of the slow pOkes
whirl The fellows who sit around and
look wise. while the hardy pioneers are
looking lOngingly to Washington for re-
lief, will find that cyclone has come.
Villas has no greater merit than that of
energy and push: the genius of labor
Working himself, he compelS others to
follow his example. The heavy sitters
will become the heavy workers, or else
they will become the heavy trampers-
out of Office. Wherever he goes, and
whatever he undertakes, Col. Villas
means business.

UNHAPPY FANATICS.

Gen. CAMPBEIL'S home organ at
1ankton pronOunces the Aberdeen
movement revolutionary conspiracy
similar to that Of 1861, to subvert the
pronounced will Of the maiOrity-a
wild dream of destructiOniStS,' and
though not reasonable against the gov
eminent. defiance of a higher power
the people. The same idea is echoed
by loud Republican blower at Devils
Lake and few others of the same per
suaSiOn here and there. Father POT
TER. the venerable patriot at La MOure.
in a somewhat milder vein, insists that
a legal expression has been had from
the people by a majority. and that there
should be entire acqUiescence in the
verdict at the polls. Other division
lists are, according to their temper,
IN various stages of unharpiness over
the convention Of the 18th. Still it is
probable that a good many people will
be peTyerSe enough 10 meet and elect
delegates TO Aberdeen, and a convention
will be held there and declare its views
without very much regard to the pro
tests of the class of gentlemen referred
10. But it is a romantic notion that
seems to possess them. Even had
majority of the voters of the territory
voted in favor Of division Oh the Sth OF
November, there would be no Obliga-
ton imposed by it upon any citizen.
No legal requirements could grow OHt
of it. The object Of the voting was
simply to furnish a basis for advertis-
ing abroad, and especially 10 advise
congress as to the general desire in
the territory in regard to seeking adj
mission as one OF two states. Although
the opponents of division tried to stand
alOOf and let the other side show it;
strength, the people would not have it
that way. Enough voted to make the
result about a tie. which was, under the
circumstances, defeat for the duplex
idea. 1t was eminently proper, then,
that with the failure of the diViSiOniStS
to show popular strength sufficient to
effect anything on their line the
unioniSto should proceed TO formulate
their views and prepare for their pres
entatiOn to the authorities at Washing
ton. The voting had Oh this question had
no more substantial character than dec
laration in political convention, and
these kickers might as we'll assert that
political party should not hold to its
views when OutyOted at the polls. as
that the friends of one state should
abandon their ground at the present
juncture. The Outgivings of these inn
practicables referred 70 are but dyspep-
tic belchingS, somewhat unSayory to
those of unfortunate proximity. buta
probable relief TO the disordered 5t0nf-
achs. A vast number of people. re:t-
sOnably intelligent, although Editor
POTTER says they do not understand
the subject, believe that the quickest
and easiest road to statehood is the
Aberdeen route, and who shall question
their right to 90 that way?

Among the points made to fOment dis
Sensi0n and excite prejudice against the
One-State movement is that most of the
participants. III il, and especially the
signers of the call, are Democrats. Out
OF $50 names scattered all over the terri
tory, it would be impossible to give an
accurate statement of their partisan af
citations, but the effort was to have them
divided as equally as possible between
the parties. A partial examination of
the list by those most familiar with the
parties indicates that, especially in the
North, the majority of the signers are
Republicans. None signed as Republic
cans or Democrats. 1t is hardly likely
that the Republican party will again
this year put Il division plank in its plat
form and kick out the One-State men.
Should il do so, it will surely be left in
the minority at the election. As one
evidence of the nOn-partiSan character
Of the movement it may be noted that
the three counties iii the South carried
by the Democrats at the last election
now give large majOrities for division,
while the fifteen counties South that
voted against division are all strongly
Republican. 1t Will be found that the
Aberdeen convention will be composed
of men of both parties. with few of
either who have been known as profess
siOnal politicians.
1t is said that in some counties South
a point that was used in favor of divis-
ion with a good deal of effect among the
local option voters was that the people
of the North were so addicted to their
cups that Dakota could not be a prOhib-
itory state as a whole. The voting
shows that quite as large portion of
the people in the North want water only
as a beverage as in the South. This does
away with one argument for division,
but it by no means settles the question
whether prohibition will be made feat
ure of the state constitution. Ii is i'll
timated that the next territorial legiSla-
ture is to be elected on the prohibition
line to pass general law, utmuch will
depend upon the workings of local OPP
